Steve Lavell: The Brendan Fevola deal is done. He's heading to the Lions. Lachlan Henderson and pick No.12 to Carlton for Fevola and pick 27.

Hey, how did you know this before the rest of the media found out? :)

    This is a stupiid suggestion.Why would we do this when we could have got Fevola, We have delisted Robertson, Wheatley & Whelan due to our youth policy and recruiting Bradshaw would be a slap in the face to us all.

    lol easy does it tough guy!

    Was just an idea...not gospel...

    No issue my friend- however if one(Bradshaw ) failed a medical yesterday ,I'm sure you would agree we do not need that.

    Sorry- may be I was a little over the top-

    No worries mate.

    I think the rumour of Bradshaw failing the physical was BS, they confirmed it on SEN.

    I think he will be on move today and i think the Bulldogs would be crazy not to give it a go.

    and some silly people said it was going to be a quiet trade week :rolleyes::lol:

    always going to go gangbusters...it had to

    By silly people do you mean silly person, and by silly person do you mean Freak?

    No offence to the very insightful poster The Oracle, but Freak is The Bizarro Oracle.

    Everything he says will come to pass...backwards...or reversed...upside-down...inside-out...

    You know where I'm going with this.

    ...back-to-front...in Aramic...in Da Vinci's secret code...in Wingdings...

    Adrian Anderson says: 3 new rules (trading rookies, trading picks only, using mediation) all used this year, so he's a happy chappy. 23 players moved this year.

    Still against Free Agency because under current situations clubs get compensation for moving players. Says the current system allows for fairness.

    Mediation is good for trade week.

    Agree. Makes sense to bring in third parties when clubs come to a stalemate, especially when players really want to leave. According to Adrian Anderson, no mediation was called for in the Luke Ball dealings.

    Rossy Lyon didn't want to trade.

    Which rookie was traded?

    Just ten minutes to go and nothing happening except for the Fevola deal.

    What's the Oracle going to do tomorrow?

    So much for the theory that the big trades that take a long time to finalise hold up a whole lot of smaller deals. The Fev to Brisbane trade was effectively the last to go through and there was time for lots more to go through.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
